Finland detects more GPS jammers as drivers increasingly try to hide their tracks

Owning a GPS jammer is in itself not illegal, but using the devices to interfere with signals is a crime, according to the Southeastern Finland Police Department.

Active jamming is illegal but passive is not. You can block yourself but not others. FYI.
